Georgia school shooting 9/4/2024

That kid didn’t need to have a gun I wouldn’t argue with that at all. If the father bought that gun after they were interviewed for threats against the school he will likely be in bad trouble if he indeed bought the gun for the kid.

Reading up on that family they were messed up. Sounds like the mom was a hot mess as well.

Does the Army have an expert marksmanship medal for live targets?

Yes, it’s called a CIB.

[WuWei]

The FBI sent the local cops.

I didn’t see anything in that link about what kind of arm was used, did I miss it?

Evidently a musket.

@johnwk2

And the first thing our evil, authoritarian revolutionary Administration does, is use the incident to advocate for a ban on the very kind of weapon our founders intended for citizens to possess,

Our Founders intended ordinary citizens to keep and bear arms [a contemporary fire arm used by foot soldiers] so they would be ready and able to defend themselves against a despotic government if necessary. The AR-15-semi is a civilian version of the United States military’s M16 and ought to be kept by ordinary citizens to defend against a tyrannical government if necessary. Forewarned is forearmed.

Right, because civilians with AR-15s are an even match for military with M-16s on full auto.

Good point, we should be allowed 3 round burst capability at minimum.

These teachers in the Georgia school had panic pendants, which they used. I believe the kid surrendered to the SRO?

Yes, it’s called a CIB.

What score do you have to achieve to be an Expert?

[Samm]

@WuWei

The FBI sent the local cops.

Same conclusion apparently.

Nope, just more badges. POG’s get a Combat Action Badge and Infantrymen get a Combat Infantryman Badge.

You get actual medals in combat for doing cool boy things like fighting while wounded, pulling a wounded buddy out of the line of fire, etc…

@Munimula1

Sounds like yes. Just like those Crumbly ■■■■■■ bags in Michigan. Lock him up.

So, should all parents be held responsible if their underage child commits a crime?

@Nemesis

The same old political discussion will follow in due course and nothing will change.

Just so you people know:

No one on Facebook has a clue about this shooting. Not one single mention. It’s just the tabloid addicts getting their fix at this point.

@DougBH

My kids middle school has a permanent on site policeman.

It’s also important to note that the 14 year old was stopped by an armed campus police officer. Had a good guy with a gun not been there, perhaps the number of dead and wounded would be much higher.

Ah, so there’s really why it’s not circulating on Facebook.

[Munimula1]

wow- that’s crazy.

Georgia law does not otherwise expressly make it unlawful for an adult to negligently or recklessly leave unsecured firearms, including handguns and long guns, accessible to unsupervised minors.

Do people here think that should change?

@GWH

I say burn him at the stake. He took 4 lives. ■■■■ the little monster.

Things that prevented this kind of nonsense through centuries of gun ownership. Agreed, ■■■■ that ■■■■■■■ ■■■■■■ .

And ■■■■ the pieces of ■■■■ trying to make laws for me over things that had nothing to do with them.
